    That we give Amir Khan, Marcos Maidana, Tim Bradley, Devon Alexander more credit for their wins over limited fighters like Ortiz and Maliginaggi, even going so far as to praise Malignaggi but we want to talk **** about Hatton, Mosley, De La Hoya, Marquez whenever Floyd is mentioned?

    This is where you know you're a ****ing hater.

    ATG fighters are held to a higher standad.

    look how people talk **** about De La Hoya, Hatton, Morales, Barrera, Cotto, and Clottey when it comes to Pac. And he was ploughing through divisions against these guys.

    It is funny. As those fighter don't deserve to be talked **** about.

    But like Philla said, ATGs are held to a higher standard. It's all relative. Bradley, Khan, and Alexander are all up and comers who haven't fully developed and are all doing some pretty impressive things (such as dominating certain fighters).

    Heavy is the head that wears the crown, when most adversary's simply aren't on your level.

    Beating fighters the very fight after they've lost deserves a bit of kickback in my view. Beating undefeated fighters or fighters who haven't lost in years, that deserves respect.

    Marquez, De La Hoya, Judah, Mosley :huh

    They'd all lost not too long before fighting Floyd. You could throw in Corley as well there

    *Check's OP's handle*

    Realizes it's the guy who said Floyd is a top 5 fighter of all-time. Knew this would be something ridiculous.

    The only thing I find funny is how all the well known Foyd nuthuggers chime in to jerk off topic starters who start topics that are sympathetic with Floyd. Happens every time. :rofl

    Waiting for Pimp C, Cornel West, Leon, and NALLEGE to have their turn :lol:

    Gee, fancy that, two of my most respected fighters are P4P Top 10 fighters for around a decade, who have dominated their weight classes, never lost and beaten all comers.

    ****ing crazy right? Backing fighters who are actually talented beyond their peers.
